Suddenly, Xiao Ruolin’s face turned red as she said with a somewhat panicked gaze, "What... what are you going to do?"
"What do you think I should ask for as thanks? ’Call me husband’? No, that’s been said already; a kiss? No, we’ve already kissed on the street."
As Xiao Yifeng said each point, Xiao Ruolin’s face turned even redder upon hearing these intimacies mentioned, her eyes filled with shy embarrassment.
"How about you pledge yourself to me?"
Xiao Yifeng looked at Xiao Ruolin with a smile, and she, in turn, turned pale and quickly shoved him away.
"You big hooligan, you big jerk, I would never pledge myself to you. Don’t even think about it!"
Xiao Ruolin glared at Xiao Yifeng fiercely.
"Didn’t you ask me to say what I want as thanks? But now that I’ve told you, you won’t agree!"
"You are nothing but a hooligan through and through. Forget about any thanks; don’t even think about it!"
Xiao Ruolin resumed her Overlord Flower’s air and huffed,
"Can’t you be a little less...?"
Xiao Ruolin looked at Xiao Yifeng somewhat speechlessly.
"It’s human nature, don’t you think?"
Xiao Yifeng said earnestly.
"I won’t argue with you anymore."
Xiao Ruolin, feeling completely unable to out-talk him, directly walked into the house and shut the door.
Xiao Yifeng chuckled, turned, and left, while Xiao Anguo’s gaze had lingered on Xiao Ruolin the entire time at the Xiao family home.
"Dad, why do you keep watching me like that?"
Xiao Ruolin’s face changed.
"Ruolin, Little Feng is a good boyfriend; he seems to really care about you. You must cherish him. You’re not getting any younger, and it’s time to think about settling down."
"Dad, stop talking nonsense."
Xiao Ruolin’s face turned red and she quickly ran into her room.
"What? Yashi was kidnapped?"
After finishing work in the afternoon, Xiao Yifeng was about to head home when he received a call from Long Qianqian, reporting that Ye Yashi had been kidnapped, which alarmed him.
Xiao Yifeng hung up the phone, and then Ye Yashi’s mobile number suddenly called.
"Hello, Yashi, where are you right now?"
Xiao Yifeng quickly asked as soon as he answered the call.
However, the voice on the other end wasn’t Ye Yashi’s, but a chilling one instead.
Hearing this voice, Xiao Yifeng’s eyes narrowed.
"Xiao Yifeng, you didn’t expect it to be me, did you?"
Xiao Yifeng indeed hadn’t expected it to be him; after having the police take Ye Songming away yesterday, he hadn’t paid much attention to this person. He never imagined that he would kidnap Ye Yashi.
"What do you want with Yashi?"
Xiao Yifeng asked coldly.
"If you don’t want anything to happen to Ye Yashi, prepare ten million US dollars and bring it to Tianhai No.3 Wharf. Don’t notify the police, or you’ll never see her again,"
Ye Tianchen finished speaking and hung up the phone.
A cold gleam flashed in Xiao Yifeng’s eyes as he murmured to himself, "It seems that when cutting grass, one must remove the roots!"
Subsequently, Xiao Yifeng headed directly to Tianhai No.3 Wharf. As for the ten million US dollars, he didn’t care about it in the least. Dealing with just a brat was as easy for him as flipping his hand.
At Tianhai’s No.3 Wharf, a ship was docked. On it, Ye Yashi’s hands were tied. Ye Tianchen stood beside her, one hand gripping her body tightly while the other held a dagger. His gaze was fixed on the shore, eyes sparkling with intensity.
"Ye Tianchen, have you gone mad? Do you want to end up in prison like your father?"
Ye Yashi shouted angrily.
"Shut your mouth, you wretched girl! If it weren’t for your whole family, would my dad have gone to prison? Now, even my mum is missing, and I’m left with nothing. All this is because of you!"
Ye Tianchen roared ferociously, pressing the dagger against Ye Yashi’s neck.
"What are you going to do?"
Ye Yashi’s complexion changed as she asked, a hint of panic in her expression.
"Don’t be scared. I won’t kill you; I’m still waiting to exchange you for money,"
Soon, Xiao Yifeng’s BMW appeared on the wharf. He stepped out of the car, immediately spotting Ye Tianchen and Ye Yashi on the ship and walked straight towards them.
Seeing Xiao Yifeng appear, Ye Yashi called out excitedly, her emotions stirred.
In Ye Tianchen’s eyes, however, there flickered a chilling cold light and a terrifying intent to kill. From the original heir of the Ye Family to having nothing, everything was Xiao Yifeng’s doing. One could say his hatred for Xiao Yifeng was bone-deep.
Ye Tianchen saw Xiao Yifeng walking over with empty hands, his expression darkened, and a flash of anger shone in his eyes as he demanded.
By this time, Xiao Yifeng had boarded the ship, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he looked at Ye Tianchen.
"Do you think you have a chance to leave here with that ten million US dollars?"
Xiao Yifeng said coldly.
"Are you playing me?"
Ye Tianchen’s face was grim as he glared at Xiao Yifeng.
"I didn’t want to harm you at first. But since you dared to kidnap Yashi, I have no choice but to send you on your way and fully eliminate you as a future threat!"
A murderous intent flashed in Xiao Yifeng’s eyes as he walked forward.
"What do you want to do?"
Watching Xiao Yifeng approach, Ye Tianchen’s complexion changed. He grabbed Ye Yashi’s body and retreated, pressing the dagger tightly against her throat.
"If you come any closer, I’ll hurt her!"
Ye Tianchen shouted in a panic.
A purple halo flashed in Xiao Yifeng’s eyes, causing Ye Tianchen’s gaze to become frozen and vacant.
The next second, Xiao Yifeng appeared in front of Ye Yashi, wrapping his arms around her. Following that, he struck out with a palm, hitting Ye Tianchen’s body.
Instantly, Ye Tianchen was sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood into the air as he plummeted into the sea. Xiao Yifeng’s palm had completely shattered his internal organs, ensuring his demise.
"It’s okay now; there’s nothing to fear!"
Xiao Yifeng said, patting Ye Yashi’s shoulder. At this moment, her arms were tightly wrapped around Xiao Yifeng.
"I was scared to death just now."
Ye Yashi let go of Xiao Yifeng and couldn’t help saying, her demeanor one of being greatly frightened.
"Don’t worry, that guy is dead now. He won’t come to harm you anymore."
Xiao Yifeng said indifferently.
